EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases various examples of Ancient Egyptian decoration, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of this ancient civilization. The image features an array of intricate designs and vibrant colors that adorned temples, mummy-cases, sarcophagi, and collars. Figures 1 to 3 depict beautifully painted reliefs and paintings found in the temple at Denderah and on mummy-cases. Figs 4 to 7 highlight exquisite details from mummy-cases housed in renowned museums such as the Louvre in Paris and the British Museum in London. These borders and ornaments display remarkable symmetry and meticulous craftsmanship. The photo also includes Fig 8: an ornate design adorning a wooden sarcophagus; Fig 9: an intriguing border on another mummy-case at the British Museum; Fig 10: a portion of a colorful collar; and Fig 11: a captivating painting found on a sarcophagus. Each element showcased here reflects the profound influence of religion, with hieroglyphics depicting deities, gods, goddesses like Ankh (the symbol for life), scarab beetles representing rebirth or resurrection after death, all intricately woven into these stunning works of art. This lithograph print is part of "The Historic Styles of Ornament" book translated from German by H. Dolmetsch. It offers us an invaluable opportunity to appreciate Ancient Egyptian artistry dating back centuries ago while reminding us that their legacy continues to inspire awe even today.
